nope but I would like to know how you guys manage it, I need to use Action Replay on this mission, I just can't do it.

[Wizard]

I did the next best thing, got someone else to do it for me

[gavin19]

anyone here beat the mission from Zero:

 

" Supply Lines " where you go and bomb 5 delivery boys on this very to control airplane toy. it's driving me nuts.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

lol. That's just about the most unfair mission in the whole game. Irony is that you don't actually need to complete Zero's missions to advance.

 

Some tips tho -

 

- If you just land and dont move you do not waste fuel, so you can be placed at a junction and simply wait for the targets to come to you

- You 99% need to use this specific order. 1st - The closest target, just a little infront and to the left.

2nd - Go back and along the street to the next one 3rd - Now the next target should be just straight down the road if I rem right ( you go down a sloping road then they are there ). 4th and 5th - The most important of them all. Fly in the general direction of the two targets then land when you get close and watch where they go, then position yourself somewhere on the ground so you don't waste fuel.

Then you have to fly back to the rooftop ( usually have little or no fuel at this stage ).

 

I know u r an amatuer but just keep trying and you'll get it

[Wizard]

Wait wait, you don't need to them?

That's what I read. But by that stage I had already done them so I can't confirm it personally.

 

Here is the exact order that I used to beat it

 

Target 1: A van right at the start. Shoot his van and he gets out, then

rail him again to kill him. This should take no more than five seconds.

 

Target 2: A bicycle just to the left. Turn around and get behind him. Fire

until he gets off, then shoot him again. This shouldn't take very long

either.

 

Target 3: Another van down the street. This guy won't get out of the van

when you shoot him, so get behind him at a steady speed and unload until

he catches fire. You should have these first three down in about thirty

seconds, and no more. You need all the fuel you can get now.

 

Target 4: A Sanchez towards Downtown. This is your first difficult target,

and it takes some practice. Get behind him at a steady speed and follow

him as soon as you start shooting. You need to blow him up before he gets

his speed up, or else you'll never see him again. It's all about timing

and practice, and once he's gone, you should be free for this mission.

 

Target 5: A third van northeast of the Sanchez. You should have about 50%

fuel after target four, and if you do, you've got this made. Get behind

this van as well, follow him for a bit, and then unload until the van

catches fire. As soon as it does, start high tailing it back to Zero's.

When you can see his pink blip on the roof, start decelerating and land

somewhere near the spot. It doesn't have to be exact. I had about thirty

seconds of fuel left when I finally got this mission down.

 

Also when wanting to fly somewhere, first land, point yourself by steering around with L1 or R1 and then take off straight.

Only other tip is to steer using L1/R1 as much as you can to maintain stability.

 

EDIT - I never thought but you could try using the slo-mo cheat if that helps any.

But... But cheating is lame.

[Wizard]

The only cheat to use is the give all the military grade weapons. YOU NEED NOTHING ELSE!

[alexis]

cheating is stupid it spoils all the fun

[taratata]

I heard a rumor that the PC version would be multiplayer (over a network). That'd be great. Has anyone a confirmation about that?

[Wizard]

I bet it would because SA has a limited 2 player mode.

[Gryph]

Yeah, one of you can be the trigger boy in a drive by! WOOO! SO FUN!

[Gryph]

Since this thread is already all the way up here, might as well post this bit of news.

 

It was today announced that ports of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for the PC and Xbox will be released June 7th 2005 in North America, somewhat later than expected.

every grand theft auto ports seems to be done less in less than a year.

[Wizard]

Let the mods begin. Or the shoddy ports of the pervious GTA games.
